STOP KNIFE CRIME!!

I am creating this petition calling the government to step up safety within our children's schools and colleges.

I am asking the government today to bring in metal detectors, and searches within the schools our children attend in order to stop the rise of knife/gun crime. It's becoming a joke to see our young people being involved in such crimes that is proven fatal by the amount of fatalities we have seen over the years. I am saddened to think how many lives have been lost and still nothing has been done to change things.

The punishments for taking someone's life is NOT harsh enough. And prisons seem to be like a holiday camp for most. For the criminal to demand their human rights. What happened to these kids rights to live.

The police need to walk with hand held metal detectors and use them. Parents should also check your kids bags and pockets.

Please let's pull together as a nation.

I don't think anyone wants to get that call or visit at the door telling you that it's your child next.
